Fortnite Battle Royale's map has been re-drawn once more, this time by a volcanic eruption during a live event on Saturday.

The event also took players to an otherworldly vault filled with crystals containing weapons removed from the game.…

Fortnite's eighth season has had its final set of challenges released, and one of them is another challenge where you must find a treasure map in the world.

A major studio working its employees to the bone is a sadly common story, but today's revelation (via a Polygon report) that Fortnite Battle Royale's success lead to hundred-hour work-weeks is still frustrating. Caught off guard by the enormous success and demand for updates to the free-to-play shooter, the studio came to rely on staff working long overtime hours and weekends. They even allegedly fired…

Epic have yoinked prizes from hundreds of Fortnite players in the first week of their World Cup open qualifiers, for reasons ranging from fraudulently entering in multiple regions to full-on cheating. They punished over one thousand players in all over the first week's competition, most of them temporary bans. That's a whole lot of cheaters for a single stage of a single competition, though in…

Fortnite Battle Royale is feeling more and more like a misnomer of late. Its most recent foray out of the genre is a competitive Creative World Cup, five trials based around specific challenges created by famous Fortniters, with a final running alongside the regular World Cup finals this July. Good news for those who are better at putting up walls than sniping through them.

A map within a map? Fortnite's eighth season is all about treasure and week 8 has another map for you to find. This one is in Paradise Palms, but it's a little hidden away. We'll show you where to find the map and the plunder that it leads to. The location of which is somewhat cryptic, but our map has the exact location circled.

These Fortnite challenges just get sillier and sillier! This one involves landing close to a couple of giant telephones and hitting the number that's displayed on their face.

How is your knowledge of Fortnite's map? This is what the highest elevation challenge introduced in Week 6 asks of you.

Let's face it, the default controls in Fortnite for mouse and keyboard absolutely suck: They don't optimise for building, one of the key parts of the game, at all. This is of course something you'll want to fix quickly, but which keys do you bind them to? This guide will go over the key bindings and PC settings you should consider changing, but will also…

The next update for unimaginably popular mega-hit Fortnite Battle Royale will bring in the ability to revive your teammates at various spots where Reboot Vans have been parked.

It's tough to get your five a day when roaming around the map in Fortnite. While this isn't really a substitute for getting the real vitamins and minerals that fruit and veg provide, they do keep you a little more healthy in-game.
